Emissions test: how we help
For an emissions test on the 2006 BMW X3, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. Rules on emissions testing differ by province and state.
Details the shop needs
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. If you have the service history of your X3, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The 3.0L 6-cylinder does the work, through a 6-speed manual.
What to send us
You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
Keep moving meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is back. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
A short checklist
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies.
Between shop visits
If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months.
Want a price?
Ask in your request, and we tell you plainly what we can arrange.
Request emissions test
